I just put out a video on my edible acres youtube channel sharing some notes on a system for potting up multiple species and structures of plants in a single pot to establish a functional guild in the pot.  This can then be planted out as a unit to have plug and play guilds in a food forest.  Thought I'd share the idea since it's so dead simple and can be modified to meet whatever situation..

Thanks, Sean! I really enjoy all the videos you post on youtube. Thanks for the obvious time and care that you put into them. We're setting up a chicken/compost system at the moment, and I suspect that my husband is sick of hearing "well the Edible Acres guy said..."
 
If you have a bad day in October, have a slice of banana cream pie. And this tiny ad:
